How do you get a flag to do that where there is no gravity ?
I hope you can see this link from NASA , can anyone explain how the corner of the flag folds towards the poster astronaut ?

Who said there was no gravity on the moon?

There is gravity on the moon, just a lot less than on Earth.

I think the gravity on the moon is 1/8 of the gravity on Earth. I could be wrong on the number though, but there IS gravity on the moon.

Just enough gravity to have a nice breeze.

Well, I found out there is 1/6 of earth's gravity. Still, no one has explained how come the flag is flapping out of control...

It is my understand that the flag that is on the moon is made of metal and was designed to look like it is in a breeze so that all the glory of the flag would show.

It's prop wash from the 'black helicopters' hovering above the studio's sound stage where the hoax was filmed that makes the 'flag flap out of control'.

Sorry, I just couldn't resist.:p

Bounce,

Since there is not as much gravity, and it was pushed into the ground, the flag will bounce which appears to be waves.
